Ender’s Game, a science fiction book unparallel to any other of its kind. Written by Orson Scott Card, one of the most notable Sci-Fi writers it is a masterpiece. It deserves a spot on anyone’s shelf, in one of the most easily accessible places. Its settings, from Earth, to a numerous space-stations, seem realistic, even though they are set in the future.
Ender’s Game is based in the future when the human population has exceeded the food supplies, forcing people to only have two children per family. Kids who are the third and over children are made fun of and beaten by other children. One third is called Ender, he was bred to be the smartest of the smart, and to save the human race from the "Buggers". Looking like giant ants they are about the size of humans, some a bit taller. They have attacked Earth twice, barely held off by the humans both times. Ender is asked to go to a space station at an early age. When he is older learning everything he can there he moves on to different schools floating in space, meets a strange and very old tutor who teaches him that no matter where you are, there is always someone better than you. And he proves this by beating up Ender
Friendship, companionships, relationships, action, smarts, and a struggle to survive are what await you when you open up the book, leaving you screaming for more when you have to stop to do something. I recommend this book to everyone, young or old for it is truly great book. A+

I liked this book just because it was so clever and out-of-the-box. The only thing I didn't like was the constant swearing...but other than that, pretty good!
